It's hard to imagine that Jane Grote Abell, chairwoman of Donatos Pizza who appears frequently
in the chain's commercials, could be disguised well enough to be an "Undercover Boss."

But tonight's episode of the CBS reality series -- which airs at 8 p.m. on WBNS-TV (Channel
10) -- documents how Grote Abell went to work in Donatos restaurants as "Cathy," complete with dark
wig, brown contact lenses and tattoos.

She took orders, made pizzas, went on deliveries and ended up dealing with a problem
employee.

When CBS first contacted her about appearing on the show, Grote Abell was hesitant.

"Even though it's a heart-warming show, and it will help people, there's also things that are
a little risky, and do you want to put yourself out there?" she told 10TV for a story airing on
today's newscasts.

She ultimately decided it was an opportunity she didn't want to miss.

"One, it can help us. We can learn some things we need to learn. And two, it can help some
people, which I think is cool."

She said she came away pleased with the experience.

"It excites me to see all our people recognized, how great our people are," she said.
